bootstrap5-template is a basic template repository to create a Bootstrap 5 site using Jekyll on GitHub Pages (or where every you want to host it). The layout is based on the Bootstrap starter template example with a navbar, search box (using lunr.js), and footer. It is intended as a quick starting point for creating new web projects.

Please note: if you are looking for older bootstrap 4 version, see bootstrap-template.

• Click green "Use this template" button to make a copy of the code in your own repository (alternatively, use Import or manually copy files)
• Edit _config.yml with your site information
• In your new repository visit "Settings" > "Pages" to activate GitHub Pages
• Edit and create pages in the "pages" folder (probably in Markdown). Use each page's yaml front matter to populate the navbar:
  • title will appear as h1 at top of the page content.
  • nav if this option has a value, it will appear in the navbar as link to this page.
  • nav_order navbar items will be sorted using this number.
• Use "includes" to simplify adding Bootstrap features to Markdown pages (see comments in the "_include/" files for instructions).

See docs/create-website.md for more details.

• Tweak base variables in assets/css/main.scss (text color, link color, container size)
• Tweak bootstrap theme colors using _data/theme-colors.csv (add a css color in the color column next to the BS color-class to override, or create a new class name. This will generate btn-, text-, and bg- classes.)
• Add custom CSS to _sass/_custom.scss (content of _sass/_template.scss relates to template components)
• Use Bootstrap to customize _layouts/ and _includes/template/.
